Hakainde Hichilema: “Political parties without manifestos have no solutions to the country’s challenges.”

The electoral victory will allow Hichilema, whose government has faced backlash for diminishing press freedom, to continue with his plans for electricity expansion and critical minerals mining.

The projects will be implemented when the UPND is given another mandate in next week’s General Election.

I urge Zambians to remain peaceful, patient and patriotic while awaiting the official results.

I heard your message loud and clear on unity to continue uniting the country. We will do our part to reach out to our colleagues… so that we can talk to each other.
